The STORE is dead

[Karl Botts]

THE STORE is dead.  I finally got the name of the catalog file, and
fetched it; here it is:

So much for that.  The question becomes, how else can we get the software?
The main thing I need is HDB uucp.  'course, I would like cfront, but I can
understand that AT&T might not want it being passed around.  But what is
the point of keeping HDB under wraps?  I know many of the readers of this
newsgroup are AT&T emplyees/consultants or otherwise have perhaps a little
clout; would one of you be so good as to update general status of
AT&T-orignating software for the 3b1?

The other questions in my previous message remain open, especially, is there
anyone who has gotten a TB to work in FAST mode with old uucp?
